Description

Come hear how our safety committee was disengaged – only there for the donuts, sad and sassy. Members came merely to get off the floor for an hour, and had zero understanding of their roles, responsibilities and expectations. Safety audits showed low team morale, lack of involvement and concerning injury events. Learn how we turned this team into a “world-class” committee through engagement, empowerment and education. We’ll share how this team now takes charge of safety – their own and others. Sometimes, getting back to the basics and the human elements of safety can turn the whole operation around. We did!
